The McDonald’s Pokemon TCG promotion now has an official English name — “Dragon Discovery.” It will launch on January 23rd in Austria (and presumably Germany). The cards will be printed in German.

This means it’s still possible the promotion will come to the United States and other countries in 2025, despite it’s obvious “Year of the Dragon” theming. (2025 is the “Year of the Snake,” but I guess Mr. Rayquaza still fits that.)

There was still some hope the promotion would come to the U.S. later this month, but the next set of Happy Meal toys will promote Sonic the Hedgehog 3 instead. It will run from December 17th to January 13th...

Technically, Chinese New Year is on January 29, 2025. Even if its January 24, 2025, to them good ol Chineser fellows, its still year of the Dragon.

The more you know. Rururemon :)
 
Not 100% confirmed yet, as the future promos mentioned here can be altered at any time in future on a whim by the planner of the Happy Meals, McDonald's, but...

If this list is the actual list of Happy Meal toys due for the coming year for its USA restaurants, unless they change the list as the year goes on, as they feel fit, maybe next year's "sustainability" changes mean no Pokémon cards for the USA next year. Sad!

Thanks to Fandom's Kids Meal Wiki for providing this list. However, unless you think there's no rule against posting trusted links to news from unofficial outside channels with the exception of only such that stay within the Pokebeach network OR takes the user to an official source related to Pokémon such as Nintendo, Game Freak, TPC/Creatures, etc., as this info is based on an unofficial wiki site containing info related to this Pokémon subject, it is a shame that I can't post the link to this list here on Pokebeach, or at least outside of my signature if I wished, but at day's end, rules are rules... :( :
